Loser Of The Year Award Lyrics

Always had the dream, now I have the action
Spent my time hearing that this "is wrong"
Broken down disasters, smoke filled empty rooms
And life from eye to eye and head to head
You'll never understand what this means to me
Not for approval, not yours anyway
Arrange by the numbers; arrange by your casualty
Defined by a submission to a common sense
That never had anything to do with me
As friends are made and lost
I always look back smiling
Never moved by struggle, fate or cost
I'd rather stay a loser and laugh at common sense
Than rely on safety nets and reminisce
As they struggle for mediocrity, Live

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is one fo the few BSF songs Ilike, but it is really good. Totall makes sense about touring for nothing and everything. It's a great song.

I think more so than touring for next to nothing this song is about people who don't fit into the definition of being normal and they are ultimately labeled and ridiculed for their different way of thinking. "Always had the dream, now I have the action Spent my time hearing that this "is wrong"" to me this suggests his perception of what ever it may be was considered wrong because it did not conform with the normal standards set by majority of society.
